The Tudors2007

Thomas Cromwell:
How do you find the King, Mr. Cranmer?

Thomas Cranmer:
I swear to you, Mr. Cromwell, that he really is the kindest of princes.

Thomas Cromwell:
I think you were born at a happy hour, for it seems, do or say what you will, His Majesty will always take it at your hand.

Thomas Cranmer:
I am not so conceited as to suppose I am anything more to His Majesty than a diligent servant.

Thomas Cromwell:
Your modesty does you honour. But His Majesty clearly thinks that you are destined for better things. Which is why he has appointed you his special envoy to the court of the Emperor.

Thomas Cranmer:
He can't possibly do that! What... what I mean is... why me? I... I am nothing, Mr. Cromwell.

Thomas Cromwell:
His Majesty trusts you absolutely. He knows that you understand his Great Matter better than anyone else, and that you take his part. You're in a better place than most to represent him at the Imperial court. I'm sure that you'll be a great success. And on your way there, you'll have a chance to visit the city of Nurnberg. The first city wholly run by Lutherans and reformers. A city free of ancient superstitions and idolatry. Free of Popery and the abuses of the clergy. I shall look forward to your report.
